..... well at least mine now has 104K ...... it had 66K on the clock when I bought it nine years ago ....... so perhaps I should try harder ......

I'm still at the top of the list *glows with pride* but in the years since my last update it's gone from 234,567 to 262k. Before the engine gets taken apart I'm aiming tor 312.5k which is half a million km.

I bought it in 2003 when it had done 46k. The only engine issues have been with two failed head gaskets, probably from inadvertent over-revving. That's scary though because oil gets onto the exhaust and there's smoke everywhere. eeek!

The body became very tatty in all the usual places so last year I got it refurbed at Clark and Carter near Braintree, who I can't recommend highly enough. It now looks better than new. And like all 993s - it's always the best-looking car in the car park!

Before someone bags my car I thought I’d update the mileage. About 2k per year since purchase! I think I’ll be adding a few more miles before she goes just for old times sake _________________Atlas Grau on Metropole Gen 2 997 C2 Carrera
